Blake Lively Shares 6 Things Inspiring Her Right Now

It's no secret that Blake Lively is one of those empresses of aspirational living. Every detail of her life and career is pretty darn charmed. So it should come as no surprise then that we're always interested in hearing what's topping her inspiration list. Read on for six things she gushed over with Vogue UK.

The Sets of Gossip Girl

"I like to take at least one dress from each of my character’s wardrobes as a memento of my time playing them. But I took a whole lot more than that from Serena’s closet for Gossip Girl, as well as a piece of art by Emilio Kruithof which hung in her bedroom."

Mark Ryden and Magical Realism

"I’m crazy about Mary Ryden’s art. I was definitely affected by watching too much Charlie and the Chocolate Factory as a child because I’m drawn again and again to magic realism – it both fascinates and terrifies me."
